  A text for courses in electrical and electronic principles, circuit theory and electrical technology. The coverage takes students from the fundamentals of the subject, up to and including first degree level. Thus, it should be suitable for students with a typical high school background studying engineering for the first time, and suitable for pre-degree vocational courses, especially where progression to higher levels of study is likely. Theory is kept to a minimum, and a firm emphasis is placed on problem-solving skills. This second edition includes new material on semiconductor diodes, transistors and operational amplifiers. The content is matched to UK syllabuses, including the Advanced VIC (GNVQ), BTEC National (2001 specifications) and BTEC Higher National Engineering (phase 2 unit specifications).

  This is a definitive text for all students studying electrical and electronics engineering, from technician level to the early years of a degree course. By providing a basic grounding in the subject alongside more advanced topics, Bird has produced a book which should be accessible to all university students, including many whose A Levels have given them little background in this field. It should also be useful to HNC/D students looking for a single, comprehensive textbook. John Bird has followed his usual formula, incorporating many worked examples and problems (answers supplied) into the learning process.
